His numbers reflect an outstanding four-year career. Except that Greg Stevenson accomplished his eye-opening statistics in just two seasons. The Penn State transfer scored 1125 points in a Spider uniform during the 2000 and 2001 seasons playing for Hall of Fame coach John Beilein.

Greg led Richmond and the Colonial Athletic Association in scoring his junior season (18.5 ppg) and followed that by averaging 19.7 ppg his senior season, again leading the Spiders in scoring.

Currently, his career scoring average of 19.1 is sixth all-time at Richmond while his 46% three-point field goal percentage is the top mark in program history. A tireless performer, he averaged 35.6 minutes per game during his career, currently fifth all-time.

Those accomplishments earned him two-time State Player of the Year honors and two-time First Team All-CAA. He was selected to the CAA All-Tournament team in 2000.

A two-time captain, the Spiders were 40-19 overall and 23-9 in the CAA during his two seasons, finishing third and first in the conference. Richmond advanced to the second round of the NIT his senior year. Greg scored 18 points and grabbed eight rebounds in a first-round win at the Robins Center over West Virginia and 21 points in a second-round game at Dayton. He finished his career at Richmond by being named the 2000-01 Spider Club Student-Athlete of the Year.

Greg played professionally overseas for two decades primarily in South Korea, as well as Russia, Spain, Greece and Serbia. His brother, Jarod, who played for the Spiders 1994-1998, is also inducted into the Richmond Athletics Hall of Fame with the Class of 2022.
